Traditional Filipino Games
Traditional Filipino Games
Traditional Filipino Games or Indigenous Games in the Philippines are games commonly played by children, usually using native materials or instruments. In the Philippines, due to limited resources of toys for Filipino children, they usually invent games without the need for anything but the players themselves. Their games' complexity arises from their flexibility to think and act.
The Filipino games bring good memories of friendship and fun among those who have played it. It brings a smile among our elders whenever they remember the days when they used to play it. It brings out the child among our parents when they mention it, and vividly remembering their childhood playmates and the neighborhood where they use to play it. It actually every adult's wish for the new generation of Filipino to experience the fun of the Traditional Street Games.
Nowadays, most of the traditional games are being abandoned by the children of this modern generation as the gadgets are more attractive for them. However, some of the children who live in rural areas are still interested to play traditional games. There is no doubt that playing traditional games has its own benefits to the players.
Benefits of Playing Philippine Traditional Games
Benefits of Playing Philippine Traditional Games
When we are playing traditional Filipino games we are doing many things.
1) Heart and circulatory system: Regular exercise or playing healthy games makes the heart muscles stronger and more efficient. The heartbeats of an athlete do not increase appreciably even when doing something requiring physical exertion and revert very soon to the normal rate afterward.
In contrast, even a little exertion sends the pulse rate of a sedentary individual rocketing up, and it takes time for the heart to settle down to its normal rate of beating. The blood vessels dilate during exercise, and so more blood reaches the muscles. It has been found that during vigorous or rapid exercise, the blood circulation in certain muscles and organs increases 25 to 30 times, thus supplying the muscles and organs with more oxygen and a larger number of red blood corpuscles.
2) The respiratory system: Breathing becomes not only more rapid, but also deeper, thus making increased quantities of oxygen available.
3) The musculature: Healthy games strengthen the muscles, promotes their development, and increases their efficiency. Stronger muscles lend better support to the joints.
4) The skin: The pores of the skin open up during exercise. The result is healthier skin, because of the more efficient disposal of impurities and dirt.
5) Temperature of the body: The temperature of the body rises during playing. This promotes the burning up of toxic substances in the body.
Summary:
All the systems of the body receive invaluable benefits from playing healthy games or exercise.
Aside from you are being physically active, it can also improve social skills, creativity, and imagination. In addition, it can promote social development thru interaction with other people and it can improve camaraderie and sportsmanship.
Takyan
